Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Franklin, MO.

If someone is getting outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detoxification daily or at least five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to maintain a normal work or school schedule. Some facilities may provide ways to get detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard time clients remain in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. A number of programs use medically assisted detox approaches while others offer medication free detoxification services. There are times when meds are needed to avert deadly withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, staff at the program help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Franklin is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that people are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
